A platform for deploying and [hosting](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/hosting) [web apps](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/web-app-mobile-app). It builds a site from the code in a [repository](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/repository) and serves it through a [CDN](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/cdn), with [custom domains](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/domain) and [serverless functions](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/serverless). It is a hosting platform, the same kind of tool as [Cloudflare](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/cloudflare)'s hosting products.

**For example:** A [developer](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/software-engineer) connects a [repository](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/repository) to Vercel. Each time new code is pushed, Vercel builds the site and puts the new version online.
